trans-Clopenthixol is a typical antipsychotic drug of the thioxanthene class. Clopenthixol is composed of a mixture of cis-clopenthixol and trans-clopenthixol. The two isomers do not differ in several pharmacological properties, for instance, anti-noradrenergic effect. However, cis-clopenthixol possesses anti-dopaminergic effects, while trans-Clopenthixol not. Cis-Clopenthixol indicated for the management of the manifestations of schizophrenia and other mental illnesses with disturbances in thinking, emotional reactions and behavior.
